14. The Look - Adrian Hurst

Oasis Church Birmingham: Talks

What does a good leader look like? This year, Oasis is exploring the life of King David - a leader in the Bible who was known as "a man after God's own heart". Ultimately, David's story is one which shows us that God is overflowing with kindness and generosity, that human frailty can’t derail his plans and his purposes, and that the one David’s life is pointing to even in his flaws and failures, the true King, Jesus, really is enough. This week, Adrian explores a really ugly story - David's taking of Bathsheba. In it, he unpacks how it all starts with "the look", that moment when David's eyes drifted away from what really matters and became fixated on something else.
